Amana Lily Lake was 80% ice covered today but had enough open water 
to attract a number of swans. At the southeast side of the lake were:

 2 Adult Mute Swans
30 Trumpeter Swans (uncollared)
 1 Tundra Swan (lacking yellow lores)

 Last year I ecountered a Mute Swan pair at Amana Lily Lake, Hawkeye WMA,
and Lake Macbride and suspect today's pair to be the same swans.
